Preservation and Restoration

Preservation and Restoration are twin tenets of The Questers Organization. Projects, selected by the chapters, are to preserve historical buildings, sites and artifacts for the community and the future. At the 2014 International Convention, $120,000 was awarded to 35 projects across the United States and Canada. The diversity of these local projects ranges from a Virginia chapter restoring Robert E. Lee epaulets to the restoration of an adobe ice house at Acadia Ranch, Arizona.

Echoing Questers projects at the local level is this comment from Bob Vila in Preservation Magazine, December 2013: I think people need to look beyond their houses and focus on their community - understanding what they have down the street, whether it’s a 1920s movie palace, or a church that no longer has a congregation. I think it would be great if people spent more time and energy understanding their immediate communities and figuring out how to preserve the more important buildings that are in danger.
